Fujian Issued The Most Stringent Target For Leather Reduction

Following the drastic renovation of the leather industry and the elimination of backward production capacity, Fujian has put forth a heavy blow to the leather industry and issued the most stringent emission reduction targets in China.

Fujian has recently issued the "total reduction plan for major pollutants in the leather industry" in recent years, calling for further efforts to intensify the leather industry regulation, speed up the adjustment of industrial structure, and effectively reduce the total amount of sewage discharged in the whole industry. 2011~2015

By 2015, the COD emission of leather industry in the province has dropped by 40% and NH3N emissions by 36% compared with 2008.

According to the plan, before the end of this year, the scale of production of leather enterprises with a scale of less than 100 thousand marks per year will be eliminated; 2014

At present, the leather industry in Fujian province has taken the lead in eliminating backward production capacity, and the pollution prevention and control technology has reached the leading level at home and abroad.

The plan has made a detailed decomposition of the total reduction task of the 9 provinces and municipalities in Pingtan and the comprehensive experimentation area in the province, and calls for quickening the industrial adjustment. All leather enterprises must adopt the cleaner production technology recommended by the state, adjust measures to local conditions, implement waste water reuse according to local conditions, strictly carry out the separate treatment of chromium containing waste water, realize the "five water diversion" of chromium containing wastewater, sulfide containing wastewater, comprehensive wastewater, domestic sewage and rainwater, and implement cleaner production audit in stages and batches.

A centralized sewage treatment plant must be built in the leather concentrated area. All leather enterprises and centralized wastewater treatment facilities must be installed on-line monitoring equipment. Centralized centralized treatment facilities must be built up to standardize the central control system, carry out dynamic monitoring on the operation of the sewage treatment system, and the on-line monitoring equipment of the leather enterprise wastewater should be monitored and connected with the local environmental protection department.

It is reported that this year, the Fujian provincial environmental protection department will compile the annual pollution reduction plan for the whole year, and the leather industry regulation and emission reduction projects will be included in the province's emission reduction plan.
